Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports by James Patterson

Synopsis:

In MAXIMUM RIDE: SAVING THE WORLD AND OTHER EXTREME SPORTS,
the time has arrived for Max and her winged "Flock" to face their
ultimate enemy and discover their original purpose: to defeat the takeover of
"Re-evolution", a sinister experiment to re-engineer a select
population into a scientifically superior master race...and to terminate the
rest. Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman, and Angel have always worked together to
defeat the forces working against them--but can they save the world when they
are torn apart, living in hiding and captivity, halfway across the globe from
one another?

I’m pretty sure this series just keeps getting better as it
goes. I feel that there was depth added to the characters in the flock in this
one, especially when they were split up.

Max and Fang are both incredible leaders, but they need to
learn how to work together to lead as a team. I feel that by the end of this
novel they figured that out. I hope so, at least.

We got a peak into some of the inner workings of the big,
bad corporation that is trying to take over the world. I wasn’t aware that they
were stationed all over the place, but we learn that they are.

The new flying creatures they created were pretty comical.
They were very strong, but they were so dumb and often ended up in destructing
themselves.

We finally figured out the truth about Max’s origins as
well. It will be interesting to see how that plays out and if she will return
to her real family at all.

This book just left me wanting to dive right into the next
book in the series, so I would say that it did its job!

That said, YA novels can be so cute when they have a bunch of kids standing up for the flock. When kids read these books, they probably feel like they can achieve anything they set their mind to, and that is awesome!
